PARTS PRODUCTION



The world of parts manufacturing and parts production is very flat. The parts manufactured in one country are often assembled in another to create the finished product. OEMs and parts manufacturers have not only witnessed a revolutionary transition in the way productions parts are marketed and sold, but also in the way they’re produced.

Makino machine tools have helped transform the way metal parts are manufactured around the world. Whether it’s as a part of the classic transfer line or as separate cells completely machining a part, often with one setup, the horizontal machining centers and vertical machining centers of Makino have brought a new flexibility, lower cost, and increased accuracy to parts manufacturing.

This flexibility allows parts production and parts manufacturing to rapidly respond to changing tastes in the marketplace. Today, companies not only must manufacture parts at the lowest possible cost, but they must also have the agility to adapt production lines for changing volumes and new parts virtually overnight.

We’ve been helping parts manufacturers cut costs and cycle times with Makino’s highly productive machining centers, automation solutions, and turnkey engineering and integration services.

With our high metal-removal rates, fast feedrates, greater accuracy and stability, and increased overall productivity, Makino machining centers provide demonstrably higher quality, shorter time-to-market, and the flexibility to meet changing production volumes, shorter part life cycles, and reduced machining costs.

Makino’s scalable solutions give manufacturers a flexible system that will meet changing demand and reduce part variability. Makino systems are designed to provide manufacturers with a highly reliable, capable, and stable parts production process that performs with exceptional statistical consistency over time. The consistent quality of Makino systems has made them essential components of Six Sigma, lean manufacturing plants worldwide.

Automotive, truck and tractor, and heavy equipment OEMs and suppliers are under intense global pressure to cut costs. They all must compete globally in a changing marketplace that calls for near-instant production shifts. Today companies not only must manufacture parts at the lowest possible cost, they must have the agility to adapt production lines for changing volumes and new parts virtually overnight.

You are under tremendous pressure to cut costs and compete globally. Makino has been helping large part manufacturers cut costs and part cycle times with our highly productive machining centers, automation solutions, turnkey engineering and integration services.

Changing market conditions for production parts manufacturing have created the demand for higher-quality criteria, while reducing machining cost, shorter time-to-market, and lower segmented production volumes. A predominate solution to meet these requirements is "flexible production," with off-the-shelf CNC equipment to machine parts in medium-volume production. Horizontal machining centers are the machines of choice when meeting these new demands.
